Description

The care of patients on the wards, in the theatres and at out-patient clinics as appropriate to the grade of the post and under the direction of the consultants responsible.

Registrar will rotate through 2 sub-specialty firms and participate in theatres, clinics, ward rounds and ward cover.

This whole-time post is based at the West Wing, John Radcliffe Hospital with occasional visits to peripheral outpatient clinics in the region.

Maintenance of patient records, the completion of summaries and the writing of letters etc., as appropriate.

So far as is consistent with the proper discharge of the above duties the postholder undertakes to deputise from time to time for absent colleagues.

Practitioners will be prepared to perform duties in occasional emergencies and unforeseen circumstances without additional remuneration but may be granted time off in lieu at the discretion of the Trust.

Commitments arising in such circumstances however are exceptional and practitioners should not be required to undertake work of this kind for prolonged periods or on a regular basis.

The Trust comprises four hospitals - the John Radcliffe Hospital, Churchill Hospital and Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre in Headington and the Horton General Hospital in Banbury.

Our values, standards and behaviours define the quality of clinical care we offer and the professional relationships we make with our patients, colleagues and the wider community.

We call this Delivering Compassionate Excellence and its focus is on our values of compassion, respect, learning, delivery, improvement and excellence.

These values put patients at the heart of what we do and underpin the quality healthcare we would like for ourselves or a member of our family.
